For creating space spectacle 400 technicians from the Indian branch of Prime Focus, a company that specializes in rendering visual effects, animation and 3D-conversion, worked tandem with teams from London and Los Angeles.
He says "The long, unbroken, floating camera-shots which Cuaron worked on translated spectacularly well in space, and led to us producing the longest continuous shot that we believe has ever been converted - 15,531 frames, or 10 minutes 47 seconds of screen-time".
